Episode Sarvam AI on NVIDIA's Investment, Voice AI Economics, and India's AI Strategy
Sarvam AI began with an ambitious proposition: build foundational AI models in India. It must now prove that those models can support a viable business. Co-founder Pratyush Kumar explains to Himanshi Lohchab the company’s expansion into compute, inference, customised models and enterprise applications, while Peak XV Partners MD Rajan Anandan lays out the investment case. They discuss NVIDIA’s backing, the economics of voice AI, Sarvam’s enterprise adoption and why specialised models could be cheaper than global frontier systems. The conversation also confronts the capital required to remain competitive, India’s weak R&D spending and the central question facing Sarvam: can technical capability translate into durable revenue?
